A. If any person shall initiate construction or alteration of any building or structure without a permit first having been obtained for the same as required by this chapter, no permit shall be subsequently issued for such change or installation and no inspection of the same shall be made until double the amount of fees otherwise provided by ordinance are paid for such permit and inspection. The payment of the double fee, however, will not relieve said person from other penalties for violation of this chapter.
B. Failure or refusal to comply with an order of the director of public works shall constitute a violation of this chapter. Such violation shall subject such person in charge of the premises to the punishment provided for in this chapter, and each day such violation is permitted to remain unchanged or unaltered after the expiration of the time given on such written notice shall constitute a separate offense. (1981 Code; amd. Ord. 2809, 1-25-1999; Ord. 3041, 8-11-2003)
